Somleng received seed funding to develop the platform’s core infrastructure and initial deployment in Cambodia, where it helped NGOs and government deliver critical information, such as birth registration reminders and COVID-19 health messaging, through voice and SMS. Somleng received growth funding to support new use cases in multiple countries, particularly around improving maternal and child nutrition and health. The platform enabled two-way communication with communities, supported IVR-based training for health workers, and sent reminders for antenatal care and child nutrition follow-ups. Its local hosting, scalable architecture, and integrations with government systems make it especially suited for use in humanitarian contexts. Has powered over 3M interactions with over 1M people.

StaTwig used seed funding to develop VaccineLedger, a blockchain-based platform that improves transparency and traceability across vaccine supply chains. The solution ensures cold chain integrity, reduces wastage, and tracks doses from manufacture to last-mile delivery. Growth funding supported the expansion of VaccineLedger and integration with national health systems. A key milestone was the deployment of Vaxin, an enhanced and tailored version of VaccineLedger, in partnership with UNICEF and Bangladesh’s Ministry of Health, enabling real-time vaccine tracking and data-driven decision-making. The platform aims to support the tracking of 25M vaccine doses and vaccination of over 3M children annually in Bangladesh.

Thinking Machines received seed funding to develop GeoWrangler, an open-source geospatial toolkit that cleans and transforms messy location-based data or geodata to identify underserved communities. Growth funding helped scale the platform’s AI-powered capabilities, enabling faster, more accurate mapping in low-data contexts.
Through collaboration with UNICEF East Asia and the Pacific's Frontier Data Network, GeoWrangler has been used to build an AI for Development Research Bank and strengthen geospatial analysis across humanitarian settings—supporting governments and responders to better reach vulnerable populations with essential services.
Rumsan got seed funding to further develop and eventually pilot Rahat, a blockchain-based platform for faster, more transparent cash and voucher assistance (CVA) in remote, low-connectivity settings. The system was tested in Nepal for emergency response, enabling tokenized aid distribution that improved traceability and reduced leakage. With growth funding, Rumsan explored stablecoin integration and digital currency use, aiming to improve cost-efficiency, real-time reporting, and financial inclusion. Rahat allows aid agencies to issue mobile tokens to beneficiaries, which can be redeemed at local vendors, ensuring direct, accountable, and verifiable support while reducing the operational burden on implementing partners.
